I keep seeing people call all sorts of things that absolutely should not be “rage” inducing rage bait and I’m confused how this term has evolved, what does it mean when something like a dumb question or a slightly censored meme is now “rage bait”? To me rage bait means something explicitly made to make you made, playing the devils advocate or purposefully edgy and polarizing content but that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore. To me it it feels like the way woke just means anything I don’t like, is the other side of the coin rage bait is also anything I don’t like I just don’t happen to be a conservative? Sorry if this post is rage bait, I’m genuinely asking and I have a touch of the ‘tism.
Ok so you’re part of the problem I guess? I’m asking a genuine question that’s sparked conversation, like let people ask real questions?
My comment history is perfectly normal and obviously genuine there’s nothing about me or what I post that seems “rage bait”
By “this one” I meant my own comment here is ragebait. It’s a joke. You guys need to lighten up. It’s only a war, you know. @[email protected]
It is genuinely alarming how easy it is to set off your issues. Could this be related to everything you know being a lie, disintegrating day by day until all you have left is heckin civility? No, the random joke I made is a plot to infiltrate your mind. Thorazine IMO.
You guys do really ask the most boring questions, though. Why are we talking about online? Ask people about the world, about their lives.
Wat? I was literally just commenting on the verifiable fact that your account is set as a bot account (seriously, check your settings lmao). Don’t involve me in your schizopost.
I sincerely hope that you are able to sort out whatever mental issues are plaguing you.
Oh good the bit where you get so mad you repeat my own insults back to me. Do your intentional misunderstandings with people online give you the sensation of socialization? I can’t say I feel the same. I would rather be devoured alive by insects than care about the things you do for an hour. Find god.
It’s kinda funny that the person you’re trying to convince that you’re genuine has their account labeled as a bot.
I wasn’t sure what that was… that’s actually very interesting, decisive and toxic content coming from bots on MY lemmy? I guess it’s true
